We then talked about the story about the people in the cave.  We also watched a video on it.  The people in the cave only see the shadows that are shown to them and so that is the world to them.  When a prisoner is released they go outside and see the real world.  Then he comes back and tells the other prisoners.  They do not believe him because the shadows inside the cave is all they've ever known.
